A person chose to drink too much, then drive, then when he struck someone he fled. Nothing about this is anyone but that person's fault, he made those choices, nobody made them for him. My company party provides alcohol, we actually have an open bar and some people get quite drunk, but they choose to take taxis or pre-arranged transpo so that they COULD drink, it's a choice. Nobody's fault but the guy that drove.

I agree, create a safe and well lit place to wait until morning so that they have that option if they don't have anyone that can, or will, pick them up in the middle of the night. I don't want my tax dollars paying for this! I work hard to make the right choices so I can be around each morning to take care of my kids, I don't want to pay for someone who is DUI and jeopardizes my safety and then wants a ride because they get out of jail in the middle of the night.

Inviting him to speak doesn't indicate approval for what he has done but it gives the students an educational opportunity, as well as an opportunity to question him. No censorship, what kind of education would Westmont be providing if they only invited people to speak that the majority agreed with? They are young adults that need to make up their own minds and as Christians, they can pass their own individual judgments. I am sure that they will maintain themselves with dignity though, regardless.

They should check out Fort Collins Colorado, they are seriously bike friendly, have bike trails all over that keep people out of traffic and they maintain those trails as they do the regular roads, same priority. It is AWESOME! I don't ride a bike, my balance is too bad....

So sorry about your loss mate, I can't imagine how hard it is to cope with such a sudden loss and am sure that the lawsuit refreshes it all. Maybe it's part of his way of coping to file the lawsuit, a way for him to try to make sense of something that feels senseless? Hang in there...
